Real estate and rents to many seem the vital factor holding up high living costs. Large employ- ers of labor cannot go aheed with ex- tensive projects until such living costs are lower, Outlays in the metropolitan sec- tion covering New York State and Northern New Jersey, as reported in the Dodge tabulations, were $547, 061,000, with 57 per cent., $980,052 000 IN ‘NEW HOUSING FOR | Formerly A. T. Stewart & Co. Broadway at Ninth, New York 762,000 FAMILIES cmstiipiaciil Builders Through Country Put 37 Per Cent. of Year's Outlays Into Homes. oatmeal New homes for 162,000 families were built or started throughout the Nation during the past year. This is apparent from final verified statistics of building operations as reported to-day from the correspond- ents of F. W. Dodge Company, show- ing total contracts of $2,359,018,090 in twenty-seven Northeastern States, thus verifying a round estimate of $2,500,000,000 for the entire country as published in The Evening World a month ago. Residential contracts took $880,052,000, or 37 per cent. ' The average for housing cach ff Uy was close to $5,500. The ent outlay for homes was 54 per larger than that of 1920. Public works and utilities came second in volume—$459,184,000, or 19 cent. industrial, $173,825.000, or 7 per cent. Contemplated projects carried over rea] estate from congested war levels —which means a gradual drop of a possible 50 per cent. in rentals of all kinds as a reaction to the huge inflow of money at lower interest rates and the restoration to normal of the rent items in living costs. This movement has been awaited anxfously both by labor and the employers of labor, in order that wages may more safely be lowered to a point at which big business in this country could try again to compete in the world's mar- or $389, 443,000, residential. The average for housing each family in this section was around $6,000, showing 61,674 families provided with new homes. This heavy proportion of 57 per cent, residential in comparison with 87 per cent. as the aver for the entire country registers “the timely effect ofthe stimulant administered in the form of tax exemption on new home structures, Slides MILLER ANSWERS HULBERT’S PLAINT Denies He Treated Him Unfairly in Message on Bi-State Port Authority. ALBANY, Jan, 14.—Gov. Miller has replied by letter to the charge of Mur- ray Hulbert, President of the Board of Aldermen of New York City, that he was unfairly treated in the Gover- |, nor’s message on the Port Authority. Mr. Hulbert complained that he had signed the report of the Bi-State Commission only so far as {t recom- mended a comprehensive plan for the tween the States of New York and do so efficiently until an adequate port authority was established. The commission again emphasizes the ne- cessity for such authority and for the adoption of the compact between the States of New York and New Jersey which will make possible its creation. Such an instrumentality will meet the commercial needs in_ times of peace and will assist the Federal au- thorities in giving proper protection in times of war.’ Common in West. the association, all prominent woolen York,” said Mr. Bisset, when asked ou The members of the delegation’ : W.

The ground for it was donated by Robert Todd, Master of the lodge and Mayor of the town, but it was realized that with the cost of labor and materials where they are now. the available resources would not permit the erection of a very im- posing structure. So that was when the members de- cided to do the work themselves from beginning to end, The lodge, which has a membership of 150, was can- vassed for artisans and enough were discovered to insure the carrying out of the ambitious plan. Dr. M. Hackett got the shovellers busy, and to encourage them their wives plied them with cooling drinks and, per- haps, advice. Dr. J. S.
